Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of acute appendicitis pathogens and their drug resistance,and to guide clinically the selection of reasonable antibiotics.METHODS Germicultures and drug sensitivity tests were conducted for the pus specimens from the 116 patients with acute appendicitis by ATB Expression bacteria(identifier).RESULTS Pathogens in 75 cases of 116 were found,with a positive rate of 64.7%,totally 85 strains of bacteria were isolated from clinical samples.Gram-negative bacilli had 72 strains,accounted for 84.7% and Gram-positives had 13 strains,(accounted) for 15.3%.The first three were Escherichia coli(54.1%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(4.7%),and Klebsiella pneumoniae(4.7%).Sensitivity tests showed that resistance rates of E.coli to cefapirin,imipenem,compound(piperacillin),cefoxitin,and amikacin were 0,2.2%,10.9%,17.4%, and(23.9%).CONCLUSIONS Dominant pathogens in patients with acute(appendicitis) are intestinal bacilli,with(predominance) of E.coli;more emphasis should be placed on pathogen detections and drug sensitivity tests so that effective antibiotics could be selected and resistant bacteria be reduced and nosocomial infections be prevented.
